Anna McMichael’s violin performance in Damian Barbeler’s 'Piece for Violin & Ball of Wool' is interrupted, distorted, fractured and corrupted by the physical intervention of the composer on stage with a ball of wool. Inspired by Tim Jetis’ photographic series of human figures half seen in the darkness, 'Violin & Ball of Wool' evokes the early morning hours, or metaphorically when looking for meaning in our relationships, our minds sometimes have to work overtime to fill in the pieces of the puzzle obscured from sight.
